Mr Hossain, a college freshman and student ambassador to the

afternoon.

Hossain is said to have asked her to remove her clothing,
which she consented to but kept her bra and underwear on, before tying her hands
and legs with belts, the Chicago Tribune reports.

He used a necktie to cover her mouth and pulled a knit cap
over her eyes, before removing her underwear, Assistant State's Attorney Sarah
Karr told the Cook County court.

Mr Hossain then struck her several times with a belt before
she told him to stop as he was hurting her, the court heard.

The woman 'began shaking her head and crying', but Mr
Hossain is said to have continued to hit her with the belt and also punched her
several times.
